Had the sweetest little afternoon stop at Ba Mien Bistro with one of my SonShines before we had to…read morepick up his brothers from school. Sometimes those small pockets of time mean the most. My son ordered the pho brisket, and I went with my usual pho chicken, and as always... it was absolutely delicious. I've been coming to this humble little spot for many years now, and what I love most is that it still feels just the same as when it first opened--consistent, comforting, and full of heart. From the moment we walked in, we were greeted with the warmest welcoming smile. They kindly asked if we had been there before and walked my son through the menu. We placed our order, and within just a few minutes our bowls were brought out steaming and fresh. The ambiance is simple but special--filled with photos that reflect vintage Asia and a sense of history that makes the space feel warm and familiar. All in all, the food was amazing as always, but the best part was the quiet bonding time I got to spend with my firstborn over a comforting bowl of pho. Moments like that are priceless.

This restaurant's obviously been here a very long time. It was probably the hotel restaurant For…read morewhat's now the Oyo motel, Probably dating to the 1960s. It's way overdue for a refresh, the furniture is quite worn, and there's a lot of taped rips on a lot of the upholstery, but we got a booth that was intact, and The Server was friendly enough. Still it is a dive. Food: They're very serious about keeping at a deli, with items That you just don't commonly see in Texas, like, Matzoh balls, Liver and onions, Cold beet borscht. But on the more common items, they claim to have the best Reuben in town. We both went for the Patty melts, which was a featured special. The food is great. Loved the fries, we also got onion rings also excellent, fresh rye bread, again authentic. If the would clean the place up a little, it would be 5 stars.

If I'd been in store (ordered through Uber Eats) I'd have demanded they be removed from my bill. Not sure how ghost kitchens work but the quality of these sandwiches was disgraceful.

What a hidden gem for me here on the Northside. From the outside I expected a typical little deli…read morespot. Boy...was I surprised! The ambiance was like a jazz lounge, nice coffee shop, deli, or quaint little wine shop. The music was soothing and upbeat, but not too much. The place smelled amazing due to the diffusers. Diffusers are also available for purchase. Now the food was made to order and was fresh and delicious! I also enjoyed a specialty vanilla chai tea latte with almond milk. They offer a specialty coffee blend that was developed by a doctor. Service was excellent! I felt so comfortable and relaxed. They were patient and didn't mind answering questions about their menu. This is my favorite sandwich shop now. So happy I found them!

The owner was the one working, so super knowledgeable and friendly. It's a cool old sub shop, with…read morea coffee place as well. The set up is a little weird. Anyways, the food was really good. The shrimp were the kind you find on a Chinese buffet. The deviled eggs were great. It was okay, but I'd try it again.

A good friend told us about this little gem of a restaurant; he often bought the banh mi to go for…read moreus at work and said they're a great family-owned business. Had time today to stop by and met Daniel, who immediately knew who we were when we said our friend would buy us their sandwiches. Daniel was super warm and inviting to my wife and I and we knew he valued our patronage and we knew we feel good about spending our hard-earned money with him. He went over their selection and we decided to go for their wonderful deal of buy 5 sandwich and get the 6th one free along with drinks and some delicious Vietnamese yogurt. We got the thit nuong (BBQ) and the combo, and both were spectacular. I mean it, they were SPECTACULAR; the bread was toasty, yet soft and warm, the meats tasted perfectly seasoned & prepared and the veggies and pickled carrots were next-level fresh and many times, it's the veggies that will make or break any banh mi. I've grown up eating many banh mi from many different restaurants all around SW Houston and Chinatown, and by far and hands down, Nguyen Ngoc's is the best of the best. Check 'em out for sure and tell Daniel and his wonderful team and family David & Amy sent you.

This is it -- I am never getting my Banh Mi from anywhere else again. The "Buy 5 Get 1 Free" deal…read morewas incredible. I picked up two Combination, two Grilled Pork, and two Shredded Chicken with vegetables on the side to eat for later. The Banh Mi ended up being devoured immediately because they were just so delicious. The flavor took me back to my childhood when Banh Mi used to be simple. These days, you are paying nearly $9 for a "modernized" version and it doesn't even come close. Overload on meat doesn't equal to great taste. The owner was kind and cared for every customers who walked in. I really appreciate his ethic and I will continue to support the establishment.

I ordered the combination and fried pork skin bánh mìs along with a Vietnamese iced coffee. The…read moresandwiches were really good the bread was extra crispy and you can tell it's fresh since they bake it in-house. It had that perfect crunch on the outside without being too hard, and everything tasted well-balanced and flavorful. They were out of the pork belly (which is only available on certain days), and I was a little disappointed about that, but the combination more than made up for it. Overall, solid spot for a fresh bánh mì and strong Vietnamese coffee. I'd definitely go back.

They know how to pack their banh mi because it is stuffed! Their meat-bread ratio is to my…read morepreference (more meat obvi) and their bread was reminiscent of Vietnam's. It's in a weird lot that doesn't get much foot traffic so it does feel a bit sketch but people are walking in and out of here with bags of banh mis. Loads of parking but if you need a bathroom, it's best to go down to the laundromat at the end of the parking lot. It seems like a lot of people do phone orders and take out but there are tables inside if you want to dine-in. I'd skip the Sugarcane juice because it was super sweet with a weird aftertaste...but I definitely will come back for their banh mis again

It's in an old Mexican restaurant in a strip mall. It always seems pretty clean to me. The man that…read moreis always at the counter isn't the most personable, but super sweet. The sandwiches are amazing. I always get the cheese delight, and whatever spices they put on it always have me craving another one. My husband loves the cheesesteaks. He had to stay at the hospital down the street a few nights, and he did not argue when I wanted to go back. They have French fries, but I didn't get them because I thought they would be cold by the time I got back to my husband's room. The kicker? There is an all the time deal that is buy two sandwiches, get the second half off, which brings the price of two sandwiches to only $9.67 before tip!!! Tip well, you can't eat fast food for this price. This is my most dreamed about sub, ever since Rocky's closed.

Great little local spot that has some pretty good hoagies. When we came in this day, one of the…read morecooks hadn't come in, and the owner told us the wait would be about 40 minutes before we could get our sandwich, we said we were ok with, since we had driven a bit of a distance to get to him. I appreciated that he told us up front before we placed and paid for our order. You can tell this is a good local spot to go to, because they weren't slammed, but they had a consistent flow of people coming in, and everyone was super patient waiting for their food, which, in today's time, people are super impatient. The customer service was really great. When our orders came up, it was before the time he gave us, so that was great also! The hoagies came out hot and fresh! The bread really does a number on this sandwich, because it is light, airy, has a good chew to it, AND, holds together as you make your way through the sandwich. The meat was seasoned nicely and was tender. I had onions, bell peppers, lettuce and mayo on mine. I think next time I'll add some jalapenos too for a little bit of kick. The fries were super hot too, would be good to have a good little dipping sauce for those. All in all, solid hoagie!

While I have never been inside the restaurant and only utilize the drive-thru, the exterior and…read morevisible areas always appear clean and tidy. Additionally, the service representatives in the drive-thru are consistently pleasant, which I truly appreciate. Regarding the food, it is always freshly prepared, well-seasoned, and perfectly crispy. I particularly enjoyed the option to substitute fries for onion rings or corn nuggets, though I did note the $5.00 upcharge for these substitutions. I also noticed a white powder found on all the items that has a unique, tasty flavor--almost like a salt and sugar mix--though I wasn't quite sure what it was. The only negative I've found is that the food does not seem to reheat well, even when using an air fryer. However, when eaten fresh, it is delicious. Thank you for the consistently good service and quality.

I'm knocking two stars for the time being because of a couple of reasons. But first let me start by…read moresaying that the people who run the place are very nice and welcoming. But their attention to detail and chaotic scene behind the counter caused delays and mess ups on my order two times and they still messed up the when I got it. My wife and I ordered the tilapia and tenders as well as the snapper and wings. These dishes were amazing, first star gets knocked here. When I ordered I asked for the snapper and wings and he rung up snapper and shrimp. No worries I'll tell him to change it, told him and he said no problem. Messed up the order three times and had to remind them every time that it was the wings. My oldest got the chicken sandwich which looked amazing. Here's the second star, I asked them what came on the sandwich which was sauce and lettuce. My daughter is a plain Jane type lady so I asked for no sauce. What do we see when she opens the container? It's absolutely smothered in sauce and lettuce. I had to end up going to the store and buying buns to put tenders on the new bun.
